Had to share!


I haven't really touched watercolour in a few years. Not since my awesome and fun show at More Vino in Trinidad back in 2007.
I recently picked up my paints and brushes again. It was one of my spring goals to paint.
Another one to cross off the list:)
It was absolutely amazing to feel a loaded brush depositing paint onto rough paper. It made me remember all the challenges and fun and relaxation and the wonderfully happy accidents that happen when you simply allow the medium to just be. It was a good lesson in patience and also loosening up and allowing things to happen and to push my boundaries just by letting go. Watercolour has this wonderful way of reminding you that you're not really all that in control. The puddles will pool as they please and they always look wonderful at the end.
The time spent on this was truly a treat! I look forward to many,many more paintings this year!
